It was an experiment with lighting and long exposure. I was hoping to get an amount of blur from the second/minute hands, but with enough light to see them it would be over exposed after enough time to see the hands blur, with less light you couldn't see the hands.
Just a little experiment really. I realise it's not pin sharp, but I think that is probably down to my tripod, I really do need a sturdier one (at least when fully extended).
I guess I liked the lighting and the tones.
Must admit, the missus didn't think a lot of it either!!
